Ode to Marie Antionette Keasberry-van Beekom | Did you find all your own dishes tasty?

By Thomas1 maart 2025

Dear Grandma Keasberry

I am glad 

that you have created so many Indonesian restaurants. 

I am also Indonesian and I love Indonesian food.

I am happy that you help people who are hungry.

My favorite dish is bami, 

especially brown bami. 

Are you also Indonesian? 

Were the dishes delicious? 

I find all Indonesian food tasty. 

Did you like all your own dishes?

 Why did you move to the Netherlands? 

REGARDS, THOMAS.
